TLDR
In this article, the equations of motion for the two-axes yaw-pitch gimbal configuration are discussed on the assumption that the gimbals are rigid bodies and have no mass unbalance.Abstract:
Equations of motion for the two-axes yaw-pitch gimbal configuration are discussed on the assumption that the gimbals are rigid bodies and have no mass unbalance. The equations are derived and different terms are brought together into separate groups for the sake of clarity and to facilitate certain interpretations. Different kinds of disturbances and their elimination or reduction are discussed, as is the yaw gain dependence on the pitch angle. Inertia cross couplings are also given. The purpose is twofold: to simplify the picture of the two-axes gimbals and to further illustrate the properties of this configuration.read more

Target Acquisition, Localization, and Surveillance Using a Fixed-Wing Mini-UAV and Gimbaled Camera
TL;DR: This work presents a field-tested mini-UAV gimbal mechanism and flightpath generation algorithm as well as a human- UAV interaction scheme in which the operator manually flies the UAV to produce an estimate of the target position, then allows the aircraft to fly itself and control the gIMbal while the operator re fines or moves the target location as required.

A Dynamic Model and Control Method for a Two-Axis Inertially Stabilized Platform
TL;DR: A nonlinear dynamic modelbased on the geographic coordinate and a compound control method based on the back-stepping sliding mode control and adaptive radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) are proposed to realize high-performance control for a two-axis inertially stabilized platform.

Precision Stabilization Systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between kinematic and geometrical coupling and the effect of structural compliance on the stabilization control loops is examined in depth by considering systems implemented with either a conventional two-axis gimbal or a traditional half-angle mirror assembly.

Stabilization of Precision Electrooptical Pointing and Tracking Systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the pointing vector and angular rate relationships for various optical elements as well as techniques developed forestablishing comprehensive analytical models of precision electrooptical stabilization systems are presented, since the performance of such systems may be critically dependent on the disturbance environment and the integrity of the associated mechanism.
